Description
The Canon 15×50 IS All-Weather Image Stabilized Binocular is an ideal optic for bird, and nature watching, marine use, or astronomical use.
The Canon 15×50 IS All-Weather Image Stabilized Binocular is an ideal optic for bird, and nature watching, marine use, or astronomical use.
Outfitted with their proprietary Vari-Angle prism electronic Image Stabilization system, the Canon 15×50 IS All-Weather Image Stabilized Binocular quick-response time and ±0.7° correction angle easily compensate for the common hand-shake that can make viewing through the binocular of this magnification difficult or disorientating.
A single-activation button located precisely where the right forefinger naturally rests makes using them easy and allows you to concentrate on viewing without distractions.
For increased usage, the Canon 15×50 IS All-Weather Image Stabilized Binocular will work as full-featured binocular when the Image Stabilization is not being used, even if the batteries are dead or removed.
Optically, they are built with ultralow-dispersion (UD) glass elements and matching doublet field-flatteners, with their Super Spectra anti-reflection coatings to produce bright and clear high-contrast images without distortion across the entire wide field of view.
Protecting the optics and electronics is an armored chassis that benefits from ergonomically designed grips, and a standard 1/4″-20 tripod mount socket for an even steadier view.
Right-eye dioptric correction, twist-up eyecups, and a wide interpupillary adjustment range round out the features of these binocular that will become your go-to optic for any outdoor activity.
